Language of the Birds
an installation of blinking books, to the corner of Broadway and Columbus.

23 illuminated books that fly above the plaza at Broadway and Columbus, was opened with a Fellini-esque carnival. There was a marching band, with poetry readings by local literary figures. The dramatic climax came when Goggin, in plaid suit and handlebar mustache, climbed a 30-foot extension ladder to untangle a veil stuck to one of the sculptures.

It is a joint production between Goggin and Dorka Keehn.
